Not in a parking lot, but almost lost one in a sea of switchgrass looking to recover a bird. No camo guns for me!

Yep, my off hand just stays put on the forearm of my autoloader. I also years ago tried the 3 fingers on the right hand in the mitten top...a bit awkward.

Slightly off topic. On one of my last hunts, actually the one outing it was raining and I got skunked. I carry my gun at the "ready" almost all the time. I found my fingers very cold. I finally decided that maybe it was due to the tall grass being covered with water. My thinking was, due...

I keep the mitten top covering my fingers on the left. The liner and the thin finger cover of that set-up isn't not really warm until the mitten top is covering...heck I could just wear a heavy mitten on the the off hand. I want a thin glove on my trigger hand, that index finger is on the...

Throw a heater in them if they aren't cutting it. ;) Seriously!

RR, I think what you read was maybe the price per 100 pounds they weigh. They are crazy high priced currently. Goggle it again or talk to a rancher you know.

Need your dogs and your limit (gun). Let me know when you might make it this far over...get on 20 and hammer-down!

These are call "a pheasant sanctuary":sneaky:. Those provide the birds that populate the ditches, waterways & fence lines for miles around it...until a snow and they are all heading into the CRP until spring.

Great work Cy! You need to make your way over here for a weekend sometime and let me know "how many flushed"! Must bring a dog or 2, most any weekend after Thanksgiving. I say "after thanksgiving" as they get very spooky after a few weekends, I want the hunt to last more than half an hour...

Do those Hotshot gloves have pockets inside for hand warmers? Can't imagine as thin as they are, they would be good for extreme cold without the warmers. In the single digits temps we had the end of our season, I used a liner glove with a Hotshot glove (slid a heater into the palm between the...

Thanks Bob.

Don't sell yourself short, those fellas have a pile of shot birds, still intact in their freezers. They just pull 3 out a couple times a week, jump in the soccer mom van, pull up by some standing cover, drop the birds, some throw their shotgun in the snow also, for even more affect and snap...

Had to goggle that....you have any left?

Good endorsement Gim, but I am still rolling my own. Likely have enough components to last my life of pheasant hunting...hope not...maybe my supply of #5 shot will give out, but maybe I can snag a bag at a local gun show...always on the lookout for that for cheap. A buck or more a shot! I am a...

No much for using tobacco or much alcohol, but my diet is a mess.

I will need to watch that. I remember hearing about this some years ago also.

If I remember the movie right, the called them "forever chemicals" as they dont breakdown. I do think it is more than the contaminated ground water, it is the non-stick coatings in the pans, the high temp plastic cooking utensils and such. The scotchgard spray would be easier inhaled...I used...

Yep, maybe keep it out of aerosol cans too. Are you still able to buy that?

Like the movie "Dark Waters". That was a bit concerning as far as the recklessness of companies manufacturing and disposal of their waste. ***I just looked it up, that movie was back in 2019...maybe we could start by stopping using that stuff in items we cook with or store food in.

DId YOU really need me to answer this?
